| Is This Gonna Effect My Engine ? by keezy125(op): 7:51am On May 04, 2016 |
Hi gurus... I drive benz c180 & I had plans on travelling to benin from Enugu last Sunday & I was unfortunate I didn't check my car before then. On Sunday morning, I started checking & noticed I ran in shortage of oil. I called my mechanic & he said I should top it with road side oil, please I need to know if it has any effect on the engine |

keezy125:Roadside oil is the worst thing to happen to/for your engine lubrication. Not unless you don't cherish your engine, then topping up with groundnut oil or palm oil, might have the equivalent lubrication!!!! 2 Likes |

keezy125:Hello Keezy125, You need to educate you mechanic so other people won't fall victim. It's better to just go into a Mobil filling station and ask for a recommended oil. Autojoshng |
